Had a party of four with two Savannah residents. We requested the location based on historical value. Our server was personality + and on spot. Fried green tomatoes and pimento cheese, excellent! Overall, food was 7 of 10. Two orders of shrimp and grits were inconsistent, good but different. “World famous fried chicken” was good. Behind scenes tour was interesting, we just wanted to see “the tunnel”….that made it worth it. Box checked, and you should too.

The salmon was very good also. The waiter was friendly and very helpful. The tour guide of this historic building was engaging with lots of pirate jokes. Overall this was a good experience. We would return the next time we are visiting Savannah.

Services was good but felt very rushed like they want to keep things moving. Food is not worth the cost at all. We even had to send things back it was so bad. Pork was tough and burnt on one side. “Crab cake” was more like a crab salad. It was watery and had an off taste.

You just need to arrive and complete dinner prior to 8 pm. Our reservation was 830pm. We missed walking through the restaurant with a pirate. Visiting the gift shop that closed at 9pm. We had the fried green tomatoes, they were excellent, followed by the Pecan honey fried chicken which is crazy delicious. It's a lot of chicken (4pieces) shareable.
